DALLAS-FORT WORTH & TEXAS ENTERPRISE
Infrastructure Code: Where Telecom Meets Energy at Scale
AT&T routes your calls. Texas Instruments powers your devices. The energy grid serves 30 million people. The code behind these systems was written when your current engineers were in school.
Dallas Enterprise Code Analysis
The Infrastructure Scale Challenge
Based on LOOM analysis of codebases from Dallas-Fort Worth area telecom, energy, and enterprise companies, 2024-2025.
What We See in Dallas Enterprise Codebases
The Telecom Protocol Stack
That billing system speaks SS7, SIP, and REST—sometimes in the same transaction. Each protocol layer was added when the industry shifted. Nobody removed the old ones because something still uses them.
Dallas-specific: Telecom headquarters means protocol archaeology is standard
The Energy Grid Integration
SCADA systems talk to market systems talk to consumer apps talk to smart meters. The integration layer spans regulated utilities and competitive retail. Different security requirements, different compliance frameworks, same codebase.
Compliance reality: NERC CIP audits ask questions about code paths
The Corporate Relocation Layer
Companies move to Texas for business reasons. Their codebases come with them. The new Dallas team inherits systems built by California engineers with California assumptions about scale, compliance, and talent availability.
Pattern: HQ relocations create instant architecture archaeology
The Defense Contractor Codebase
North Texas has significant defense presence. These codebases follow CMMC, ITAR, and security requirements that most engineers never encounter. Documentation exists, but access requires clearances.
Unique constraint: Code documentation is often classified
The Dallas Enterprise Reality
Dallas isn't startup country. It's where infrastructure companies run. The systems here don't move fast and break things—they move carefully because breaking things affects millions of people.
That conservatism means systems last. Code from 2005 is still in production because it works. But the engineers who understood it have retired. The documentation describes the system as designed, not as it evolved.
When you can't afford to break things, you need to understand what you have before you touch it. LOOM shows you the architecture as it actually exists.
Dallas-Fort Worth Tech Ecosystem
Downtown Dallas
Telecom headquarters and financial services. Infrastructure code at scale. Systems that connect the nation.
Richardson / Telecom Corridor
Technology manufacturing and networking. Where Texas Instruments and telecom equipment companies maintain decades of embedded systems.
Fort Worth / Mid-Cities
Defense contractors and aerospace. Codebases with security requirements that add complexity layers.
Is LOOM Right for Your Dallas Team?
Probably Not If...
- Your system is under 5 years old with the original team
- You're building greenfield without legacy integration
- Downtime is acceptable while you figure things out
Essential If...
- Your codebase spans multiple technology generations
- The original architects have moved on or retired
- Compliance audits require architecture traceability
